  Speaker 1: Everybody don't have a body type for every fashion statement
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: that comes out, you know you. And the way you

  Speaker 1: I I would say, get out of the fool anybody business.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: But you really can't fool yourself because if you fool yourself, man,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: you gonna make all kinds of or wayward decisions. Skinny
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: jeans was the thing for a while. Why would I
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: buy a pair of skinny jeans and I'm not skinny?
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: It don't make no sense, it it It just don't
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: make no sense. Why would I wear a leopard skin
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: jumpsuit skin tight? If you don't have a body for that,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Why would you have that on? You know, and women
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: do it a lot. Oh that's sexy on her, but
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: it may not be flattering to you, at least to
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: your own self. Be true when you look in the mirror. Now,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: if you're not true to yourself. Do you know there
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: are people that no matter how they look, they look
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: in the mirror and they go coo, I got it
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: going on, And that's how they feel about theirself. Now,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: guess what. I'm a proponent of feeling good about who
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you are. I think that a person should feel good
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: about themselves. But don't fool yourself into making things cause
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: you feel good about yourself. You look good to everybody too,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: because that ain't gonna be the case. And when you
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: go out inside with this stuff on, and you are
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: open to public scrutiny and criticism, and I see it
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: all the time. You know how you were raised to
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: do the right thing. And just cause you see some
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: guys getting away with the wrong thing, don't mean you
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: ought to do it. Yeah, you can make money selling dope,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: but you gonna go to jail. You gonna do sometime,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: and you might get killed. You're gonna pay for that.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: The prison is full of people sell some drugs. Do
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: you know that. I've read a statistic somewhere to say
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: eighty percent of prison inmates are in there for some
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: drug related offense, whether it was using, selling, stealing to
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: get it, line distribution, traveling, trafficing, something like that. I've
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: read that. So you know, look, what I've tried to
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: do is understand who I was. You know, I owe
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: this to my mother because my mother, when I was
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: fifteen years old, she told me, she says, Steve, you
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: should read the Book of Proverbs. Proverbs in the Bible
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: is the book of wisdom and understanding. And I'm really
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: hot on this subject right now, because I just did
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: something really cool and they'll be finished with it tomorrow.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I'll pick it up. But I did something really cool
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: to honor my mother, and I'll explain the story to
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: you all once I get it done. When I post it,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: I think i'll post it. I probably won't anyway, man,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: I just ain't good at posting. Man. But anyway, she
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: told me about the Book of Proverbs. Cause Book of Proverbs,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: book of wisdom and understanding. And so at fifteen years old,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: and I kid you not, I started asking God for
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: wisdom and understanding because it's more powerful than silver and gold.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: It's more important. It will keep you when you are
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: all out of silver and have no gold. Wisdom and
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: understanding is important, man, And I praise God for that
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: because he did give me a level of wisdom and understanding.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Am I the wisest person on earth?
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: No?
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Am I the most understanding personal? No. The wisdom and
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: that understand that I have has served me well in
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: my life. When I've gone against it, I've paid the price.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: And one of the things that I learned from the
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Book of Proverbs was to stay true to who I was.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: That wisdom and understanding makes you understand that everything that's
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: out there ain't for you. Quit blowing in the wind, man,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Quit going with the flow. You ain't water. So I
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: just go with the flow. I got a friend of
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: mine that's fifty where he was he's older now, but
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: when he was fifty five years old, he got two
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: women pregnant at the same time. You know what he
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: told me, Man, I'm just going with the flow of
• 5:41
